How About a Mack with a Detroit Diesel
Here’s a Sheepscot B-61 that had it’s Mack engine taken out and a Detroit 6V-71 installed.
The real story is that we sometimes make trucks that are cast to look like they’re rusted and old.
The diesel comes from Masterbilt Models (#9921). They also make a 12V71 available from Truck Stop Models painted or unpainted.

Mack LJSWX introduced at Amherst Railroad Show
The LJ was the most popular Mack of its class. The SW in the model indicates six wheels (tandem rear axle, 6x4) and the X is for severe duty. The spotting features of an X suffix model are the exposed cast radiator and the running board / fender design. Built from 1940 to 1956 this truck was popular with contractors and heavy haul truckers. Because they were tough trucks many are seen today at truck shows.
